The Association of District Councils (ADC) was founded in 1973 to represent the interests of district councils and aimed to maintain high standards of public services. This was achieved by holding regular conferences and meetings, study groups, collecting statistics, providing an information service and meeting with government on particular issues. The membership extended to 332 non-metropolitan district councils in England and Wales.

The ADC was incorporated into the Local Government Association (LGA) on 1 April 1997. The LGA itself was formed by the merger of the Association of County Councils, the Association of District Councils and the Association of Metropolitan Authorities to represent the interests of principal local authorities in England and Wales. The County Councils Network formed in 1997 to address issues of specific importance to County Councils.

The records of the ADC were deposited as a gift in February 1999.
